Hi all,
first at all - thanks for providing this enterprise repository!
I just want to ask about the "vitality" of the EPEL 5 repo.
E.g.:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/x86_64/repoview/libstatgrab.htm...
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/repoview/libstatgrab.htm...
I thought that, if a package is in general also a EPEL package, then it is build for all supported distributions. Of course, if the requires/dependencies of a newer distro would make this "impossible", that this rebuild would be queued or excluded.
Just curious about the policy.
Thanks LF

The packages are built depending on the will of their maintainers. IF ( and only if ) there is a maintainer, there might be a package. Therefore, depending on the interest of the maintainers, built attempts exist ( or not )
